Maximum Received Snapshots
During scheduled or manual data replication, the DXi8500 receives a
snapshot from the source system. A snapshot contains all of the data
necessary to fully recover or failback a NAS share or VTL partition to the
point in time when the snapshot was saved.
The DXi8500 can retain up to 24 snapshots for each replicated share or
partition. Once the maximum number of snapshots have been saved,
the oldest snapshot is deleted to make room for each new snapshot
that is received.
To configure the maximum number of received snapshots:
1
In the
Maximum Snapshots Per Share/Partition
drop-down box,
select the number of snapshots to retain for each replicated share or
partition.
The default value is 10. The maximum value is 24.

.
OST
The
OST
page allows you to configure the DXi8500 to present its
storage capacity as storage servers using OpenStorage (OST)
technology. You can add one or more Logical Storage Units (LSUs) to a
storage server. Storage servers and LSUs are compatible with backup
applications that support OST, such as Symantec NetBackup and
Symantec Backup Exec. In addition, OST data can be duplicated
(replicated) between DXi systems using NetBackup (see
Replicating OST
Data
on page 316).
